Chapter 125 Let Su Mei Go
He Tingxi watched Shi Hui leave, and couldn't help muttering: "Shi Hui, what do you mean by saying it looks like a painting, and it looks good from a distance? If you don't mean you like it, then what do you mean? If you say you don't like it, you are just deceiving yourself. That's all, as long as Han Min doesn't know that he had such thoughts."
He Tingxi smiled helplessly.
Afterwards, he asked the guards to send him back to his room to rest and did not disturb Ling Xiyue.
He Tingxi lay on the bed, thinking about He Jingcheng.
He couldn't help but ponder: He originally wanted to use the Empress Dowager or the Queen to make He Jingcheng lose Su Mei, but now it seems that if Su Mei died as a result, Shi Hui would also be very uncomfortable.
Shi Hui gets excited whenever Su Mei is mentioned. Although he knows that there is no possibility for him to be with Su Mei, his heart still can't help but pay attention to everything about Su Mei. Well, for Shi Hui's sake, let Su Mei live.
At first I thought He Jingcheng simply doted on Su Mei, but I didn't expect that he had already reached the point of no restraint. If he continued like this, he would most likely die soon. I saved He Jingcheng's life this time, although it was not my intention.
I will stop my secret fight with him for now and wait until Xiyue gives birth to the baby safely.
He Tingxi didn't think about it anymore and went to sleep peacefully.
next day
He Jingcheng and Fang Di went to the harem early.
When they arrived at the queen's bedroom, He Jingcheng went in alone. When the queen saw He Jingcheng coming, she immediately dismissed her attendants and left only Nanny Dong with her.
When the queen saw that there was no outsider, she immediately frowned and scolded.
"Kneel down."
He Jingcheng was stunned. He knew the seriousness of the matter, so he immediately knelt in front of the queen and admitted his mistake sincerely.
"Please punish me, mother. I am guilty."
"You still know that you are guilty. Weren't you very majestic last night?" The Queen deliberately glanced at Nanny Dong and asked back.
"Yesterday, I was just anxious for a moment. Please understand, mother." He Jingcheng lowered his head, looking honest.
"Considerate to you? If your mother continues to ignore you, you will soon die at the hands of Su Mei." The queen cursed.
"It's not that serious. You're worrying too much, mother." He Jingcheng denied.
"Am I worrying too much? Don't think I don't know what you have done? In order to have fun with Sumei day and night, you actually took all kinds of tonics, didn't you?" The queen asked harshly.
He Jingcheng was stunned. He was stunned for a long time before he slowly said, "Mother, how did you know?"
"You admit it, right? If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. It doesn't matter how your mother knew about it. What's important is how you plan to deal with this matter? How are you going to deal with Su Mei? Give me an answer." The queen said coldly.
He Jingcheng lowered his eyes and thought for a while before he spoke.
"Mother, I really like Su Mei. I beg you to spare her life. As long as you don't kill Su Mei, I will agree to any condition you give me." He Jingcheng promised solemnly.
"You agree to all the conditions? You are affectionate enough? But do you think your mother will let Su Mei stay with you and harm you?" The queen asked disdainfully.
He Jingcheng was stunned. He knew that the queen was not so easy to persuade. After thinking for a while, the corner of his mouth tilted to the left.
"Mother, I have good news to tell you. Xiaowan is pregnant and has been pregnant for more than a month."
The queen was stunned and very surprised, "Really?"
"Yes, Doctor Su came over to take my pulse last night and confirmed it." He Jingcheng nodded.
"That's great! I didn't expect Xiaowan to be so pregnant so soon?" The queen said excitedly, and a smile slowly appeared on her gloomy face.
Seeing that the queen's mood had improved, He Jingcheng took this opportunity to continue, "Mother, you see, I still know the importance of things. I will never delay the tasks that need to be completed. Now that Xiaowan is pregnant, when the emperor knows about it, he will confer the title of Prince of Lu on me. This is something worth celebrating, isn't it?"
When the queen heard the word "Prince of Lu", her heart was filled with joy.
"Yes, after being canonized as the Prince of Lu, you have a title and are no longer an ordinary prince. Your status has risen immediately."
"So, mother, don't take Su Mei's matter too seriously. It's just my hot-bloodedness. If you're worried, I'll write you a letter of guarantee, promising that I will never take any supplements again and that I'll only go to Su Mei once every few days. How do you think?"
He Jingcheng looked at the queen sincerely, without any aggressive expression at all.
Seeing He Jingcheng's "obedient" appearance, the queen softened her heart, but when she thought of the empress dowager, she hesitated.
"But, this was discovered by your royal grandmother. Even if I let you go, how will your royal grandmother deal with it?"
"Did the Empress Dowager find out? Why is she suddenly paying attention to my affairs? This is very strange." He Jingcheng was very confused and couldn't help thinking about it.
Before the queen could say anything, He Jingcheng guessed something and smiled coldly.
"It turns out that everything was He Tingxi's doing. He wanted to sow discord between me and Su Mei. I never thought that he would do such a thing. It was really beyond my expectation."
"Your Majesty knows this." The Queen echoed He Jingcheng's words.
"Then why are you cooperating with him, mother?" He Jingcheng was instantly dissatisfied and questioned.
When the Queen saw He Jingcheng "complaining" to her, she also got angry and scolded: "I cooperated with him? If I didn't stop you, would you still want to live? How did you pamper Su Mei? Look at He Tingxi, he does pamper Ling Xiyue, but is he like you? He actually treats his own life as a joke? It's really unreasonable."
The queen became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she was about to stand up and beat He Jingcheng up.
Seeing the queen so excited, He Jingcheng immediately became timid and hurriedly bowed his head to admit his mistake.
"I know I was wrong. I will never do it again."
The queen slowly calmed down and said coldly, "Tell me, how are you going to deal with your grandmother?"
He Jingcheng lowered his head and thought carefully.
After a while, He Jingcheng smiled and said, "I will go to the Empress Dowager in person and tell her about Xiaowan's pregnancy. She will be very happy when she hears it. When she is happy, I will mention Sumei's matter. As long as I am sincere and humble, the Empress Dowager will definitely not pursue the matter any further."
After listening to He Jingcheng's analysis, the Queen thought it was feasible and nodded.
“It seems to work.”
"Don't worry, mother. I have my own way to convince the Empress Dowager." He Jingcheng was full of confidence.
"Okay, let's try it."
"Yes."
"But you have to write a guarantee that you will no longer take any supplements, and the number of times you go to Sumei will be limited to once every few days." The queen did not forget to remind.
He Jingcheng was speechless for a moment. Thinking that the Queen had already let Su Mei go, he had no choice but to compromise and wrote a letter of guarantee.
The queen looked at the letter of guarantee and smiled with satisfaction.
